Dear Editor, Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been reported to induce remission of coincidental or sole autoimmune disease [1–3]. We report on a patient with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema (RS3PE) achieved remission without any treatment after unrelated cord blood transplantation (CBT).A 60-year-old man with a two-month history of morning stiffness in the hand joints, polyarthralgia, and edema of the dorsum of both the hands and feet was admitted to our hospital. Laboratory findings revealed an elevated matrix metalloproteinaise-3 (MMP-3) of 824.1 ng/mL (< 121), along with macrocytic anemia. Rheumatoid factor, antinuclear antibody, and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody were negative. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hands demonstrated soft tissue swelling without bone erosion. Based on these data, he was diagnosed with RS3PE. Bone marrow examination revealed dysplasia of the erythroid series and chromosomal abnormality including dup (1)(q21; q42),
